Figures for YouTube's online streaming volumes are incomplete because metrics firms only analyse US statistics, it has been argued. According to TechCrunch, estimates from comScore and Nielsen as to the number of YouTube videos streamed every day across the world are only 25 per cent of the total. Nielsen and comScore's estimates put YouTube's monthly US video streams at between six and seven billion. But calculated on a global scale, the figure is more in the region of 30 billion videos viewed through the site's on-demand streaming service every month. The figure amounts to around one billion every day, which beats competitors Myspace, Yahoo and Microsoft. In other video streaming news, UK terrestrial TV station Channel 4 has announced plans to make its entire back catalogue freely accessible online via its on-demand software. Some 4,000 hours of streaming content will be available from July in a move unparalleled by rival channels. Programmes are only viewable for 30 days after transmission under current restrictions.
